Forbes Destroys John Boehner in Scathing Smackdown.

Earlier this week, conservative website forbes.com published a scathing article about Boehner's invitation to Netanyahu to address Congress. Titled "Bibi Netanyahu -- aka 'The Republican Senator From Israel' -- May Have Made A Fatal Political Mistake", the article begins as a critical analysis of Netanyahu and how his actions may have, in fact, hindered his chances for re-election. The second half of the article, however, is about the roles played by Isreali Ambassador to the US Ron Dermer and House Speaker John Boehner in this political theater, and whether or not laws were broken in the process by Ron Dermer. A more interesting question would be whether or not laws were broken by Boehner. Still, the article is worth reading.
